Is it possible to get Python exception errors

[-grubby]

Is it possible to have an except statement print out debug info from python (IE: the traceback info). I want to recieve debug info, but not have my program crash. Can I do this? And if so, how?

Have not tested this but:

import sys

try:
#do something
except:
print sys.stderr

Easiest way to do it:


try:
x = 1/0
except ZeroDivisionError, err:
print "Someone set up us the bomb!",err

try:

except Exception, err:
print "Someone set up us the bomb!",err

This will work for any error

OK, I've tried all your methods, none of them are the one I wanted. To be more specific, I want it so if an exception occurs, it outputs the traceback info (as if the program crashed) but keeps running.

Actually, true to the Python cliche of having every module you need, you can type "import traceback" and use the traceback (http://docs.python.org/lib/module-traceback.html) module :) (after catching the exception)

Examples here (http://docs.python.org/lib/traceback-example.html)

(this is a powerful tool to have when you're running a server or something and you need to remotely log the exceptions and the stack traceback)
